This event happens sporadically, and rotates between the planets of Alderaan, Corellia and Tatooine. The event focuses on the outbreak of the Rakghoul virus, and during the event you’ll travel to the rakghoul tunnels that have been dug deep underground. During the event you can earn some unique rewards including a bunch of decorations!

Rakghoul Event Guide

Rewards Vendor

The Rakghoul reward vendors are permanently located in the Cartel Bazaar section of the Republic or Imperial Fleet, up the ramp. Republic side, look for the glowing green-armored human named Captain Rizos Flautply, Imperial side, look for the glowing yellow/orange-armored human named Captain Raya Haedele. They have some of the rewards and decorations, but the rewards are spread out between them and the short brown Jawa vendor named Jeelvic who is across from them.

Currency

The Rakghoul rewards are mostly purchased with Rakghoul DNA cannisters currency, which are earned from one of the daily quests, two from the the daily Heroic quest, one from the easy once-per-event Jeelvic the Jawa’s quest, one from the evil daily Spreading Infection quests where you need to infect 3 players, two from the once-per-event Eyeless operations boss quest, and you can get 4 to 8 DNA Canisters for every time you defeat the Eyeless operations boss.

You can see how many Rakghoul DNA Canisters you have by clicking the currency tab of your inventory, and the canisters are legacy-bound and can be spent and earned on any character.
